Lyrics

It weren't the name and it weren't the fame
That made him stick to the fighting game
And it weren't for the chance of being a champ
That he risked ten years and a damaged lamp
And it weren't simply thirst for the crowd's applause
Or for the dollar in the gloves
It was just because
He needed coin
He needed coin
And it weren't the excitement of the blood
That made him go forward and follow up
And jab and counter and throw right hand
Till the rival's corner screamed at their man
And he didn't have nothing against the guy
But that was his job so he just had to try and
He needed coin
He needed coin
And it weren't pure guts that made him stick
When his legs were tired and his stomach sick
One hand closed tight and body so sore
That he still fought on and took some more
And many's the time he'd have packed it in
But the fire in his belly still said he could win and
He needed coin
He needed coin
When his head went crack on the canvas floor
And the crowd at the ringside rose in a roar
Weary through the blood and sweat
They'd have seen him killed just to win a bet and
He needed coin
He needed coin
What was the thing that made him crawl
To his tottering legs and block and stall
Until one put him straight to sleep
Well he had a wife and four kids to keep and
He needed coin
He needed coin
He needed coin
He needed coin
